You're too slow to come back, Huang Quan."
Jianshan Mei was still wearing the same solemn kimono, but the difference from before was that her kimono was now soaked with blood.
"Did you kill many people?"
Looking at Jianshan Mei's kimono that was still bleeding, Jianshan Huangquan frowned and took a few steps back.
Although their concepts of good and evil changed after becoming puppets of the nine-tailed fox, Jianshan Mei's current state still made her feel disgusted.
"I didn't kill many people. To be more precise, I wiped out the Iizuna family where your fiancé was. So, are you happy to hear this news?"
"Why do you do this?"
In fact, Isayama Yomi didn't feel much about the extermination of Iizuna's family.
After all, the only person she cared about before was her fiancé, Iitsunoki Iitsunoki.
And after Iizuna Noriyuki broke off his engagement with her, the life and death of the entire Iizuna family had nothing to do with her!
The reason why Isayama Yomi was dissatisfied with what Isayama Mei did was that what she did was too extreme.
Although it is absolutely impossible for the Iizuna family to be wiped out as Isayama Mei said, the main family as the main inheritor has definitely cut off its bloodline.
If this matter were to get out, and trigger intimidation among all the Psychic families in Tokyo, causing them to band together, it might cause some obstacles to the Nine-Tailed Fox's plan...
"Who told them to rush over here and cancel the engagement while you were unconscious?"
Jianshan Ming spread his hands and scoffed at Jianshan Huangquan's worries.
With the help of Lord Nine-Tailed Fox, her and Isayama Yomi's strength was only raised to the special level.
However, just like that, she used a special move to directly kill the Iizuna family, which claimed to have been passed down for hundreds of years!
Jianshan Mei really didn't know why there was any need to keep such a useless family.
Chapter 348: Extreme Joy Leads to Sorrow
"Our mission is only to seize the spirit beasts in the hands of those families. There is no need to kill too many people."
Jianshan Huangquan had no intention of refuting Jianshan Mei's point of view.
Although she was also quite curious about the huge contrast between Isayama Mei's personality before and after, now that they both served the Nine-Tailed Fox, she would not seek death by knowing something that she shouldn't.
"Speaking of spirit beasts, how's the situation over there? I think he killed your father, the head of the Isayama family, with his own hands, right?"
Jianshan Mei, who also didn't want to argue with Jianshan Yomi, glanced at the Lion King in Jianshan Yomi's hand and turned the topic to Jianshan Naraku.
Although they have great freedom as puppets, they are essentially controlled by the nine-tailed fox.
The Nine-tailed Fox's orders were shared by both of them, so when dealing with the Iizuna family, Isayama Mei clearly received the Nine-tailed Fox's order to Isayama Yomi to kill Isayama Naraku with his own hands.
"Although I attacked him, I didn't kill him..."
"You didn't kill him? Could it be that you were too soft-hearted?"
Hearing what Jianshan Huangquan said, Jianshan Ming was stunned.
A special-class person went to assassinate a disabled person with only one arm and still failed. She really couldn't think of any other reason except that he let him win.
"Of course not. It was Inari God who did it in secret."
Jianshan Huangquan was very dissatisfied that Jianshan Mei suspected that he was soft-hearted.
After all, Jianshan Mei's words were undoubtedly questioning her loyalty to the Nine-tailed Fox!
"Since it's the gods who are taking action, there's nothing we can do."
After hearing the reason given by Jianshan Huangquan, Jianshan Ming was silent for a while and then continued.
"What about you? I've already got the Lion King. Did you catch the Iizuna family's spirit beast, the Guanhu?"
"Of course. Even though that thing already possessed intelligence and was quite cunning, I still managed to capture it."
As Jianshan Mei spoke, he took out a transparent cage about the size of a palm from behind him.
In it, a little fox, half the size of a palm and covered in snow-white, was running around, looking quite pitiful and adorable.
"In this case, the only missing spirit beast is Shirai from the Tugong family."
Looking at the white fox in Jianshan Mei's hand, Jianshan Huangquan showed a relaxed expression on his face.
"Don't be careless. Even though Tsuchimiya Yale's body is about to be worn down by Shirai, he is still not someone the two of us can handle."
"Of course I know that."
Jianshan Ming's kind reminder was met with a roll of the eyes from Jianshan Huangquan.
Although the two had been secretly competing with each other before becoming puppets, after becoming puppets of the Nine-Tailed Fox, their relationship became as harmonious as old friends.
"After obtaining the life force, the Nine-Tailed Fox Master will personally capture the spirit beast Bai Rui, which was transformed from the Killing Stone. We only need to muddy the waters in Tokyo during this time."
"So where are you going to start?"
Looking at Jianshan Huangquan's confident look, Jianshan Ming asked curiously.
You know, even though they attacked two psychic families before, it is still far from enough to cause chaos in Tokyo...
"Of course it's the department I used to work in."
Thinking of his companions in the Natural Province who had fought alongside him, a bright smile broke out on Isayama Yomi's face.
"I really want to see it soon. The look of disbelief after being attacked from behind by a trusted comrade..."
.
"Ah, it's so hot! Jianzi, I'm hot and bored!"
In Yotsuya Miko's room.
Because her mother and brother were both busy and couldn't come back, Yotsuya Miko called Yurikawa Hana over to spend the long night with her.
Unfortunately, there was a problem with the electrical circuit in her community. Even if the electrician worked all night, the power would not be restored until the second half of the night.
And now it is summer.
Even at night, the oppressive heat still penetrated her room through the window...
"Well, how about we go to the internet cafe and spend the night?"
I glanced at the time on my phone.
However, it was only around eight o'clock, but due to the power outage, the surroundings were pitch black and nothing could be seen.
His father, who was a kind spirit, had already attained Buddhahood after having previously sought out Hikigaya Hachiman.
Now with only a white candle and the noisy Yurikawa Hana as her companions, Yotsuya Miko felt inexplicably uneasy.
"cybercafe?"
Hearing Yotsuya Miko's suggestion, Yurikawa Hana stopped rolling around on the bed.
With her flexible waist, she sat up from the bed, her chin in her hand, and began to think about the feasibility of Yotsuya Miko's suggestion.
"If it's an internet cafe, they should have a generator. The price of a room isn't too expensive, and there are free iced drinks..."
"Free iced drinks?!"
As a greedy person, Lily Kawaka's eyes lit up when she heard that there were free drinks.
"Let's go, let's go to the internet cafe now!"
As she spoke, Yurikawaka jumped off the bed and ran out the door.
"Hey, wait! We also need to bring some changes of clothes!"
Yotsuya Miko pulled Yurikawa Hana back from her excitement.
The reason why she suggested going to the Internet cafe was because it had air conditioning and rooms with showers, not just for the free iced drinks!
Ten minutes later, on the road near Yotsuya Miko community.
Yurikawa Hana hummed a song while skipping forward holding Yotsuya Miko's hand.
"Xiaohua, it's easy to sprain your ankle like this."
Even though she only had the lighting function of her cell phone as a source of light, Yurikawa Hana still dared to walk like this on an unknown road. Yotsuya Miko was very worried that this optimistic person next to her would hug her with a miserable look on his face and seek comfort.
"Hey, Jianzi, don't worry. You know, my balance is very good!"
As she spoke, Yurikawa Hana made a strong gesture for herself.
Then three minutes later...
"Ouch, my feet hurt!"
"...Didn't I remind you before not to walk like that?"
Yotsuya Miko looked at Yurikawa Hana, who was sitting on the ground, hugging her thighs and crying with a pitiful look on her face, with a frown on her face.
"Who knew a huge rock would suddenly appear on the road?"
Yurikawa Hana pouted and tried to defend herself, but the pain in her right ankle made her shut up instantly. She then continued to hug Yotsuya Miko's thighs and cried.
"Oh, really!"
Rubbing her long hair in distress and looking at Yurikawa Hana who was lying on the ground and acting pitiful, Yotsuya Miko sighed and squatted with her back to her.
"Come on up, I'll carry you to the clinic..."
Chapter 349: Mother Xue's Worries
"Well, thank you very much for giving us a ride..."
In the back seat of a high-speed luxury car, Yotsuya Miko was looking at the girl sitting opposite her reading a book with an uneasy look on her face.
"Nothing. Since we happened to meet, it's only natural for me to help. Besides, it's just on my way."
Hearing what Yotsuya Miko said, Yukinoshita Yukino closed the book in her hand, raised her head and looked at her carefully.
She hadn't spoken to Yotsuya Miko for a long time, ever since Hikigaya Hachiman joined the Service Club.
Even if we occasionally met at school, we would just jump past each other and there would be no intersection at all.
"Um, Yukinoshita-san? Is there something wrong with me? You keep staring at me..."
First Chapter Previous Chapter 276/30Perhaps because of her relationship with Hikigaya Hachiman, Yotsuya Miko felt very uncomfortable when Yukinoshita's eyes swept over her.
It was like a cat being caught stealing food by the wife, which was very disturbing.
"How did Yotsuya-san know Hikigaya-san?"
After thinking about it in her mind for a while, and remembering what her sister said about getting straight to the point, Yukinoshita Yukino brought the topic directly.
"Hey, how did Hikigaya-kun and I meet?"
Hearing Yukinoshita Yukino's question, Yotsuya Miko subconsciously said the name she usually called Hikigaya Hachiman.
"Hikigaya-kun?"
Hearing such an intimate name, Yukinoshita Yukino's face instantly darkened.
Although she already had some guesses in her mind, she still found it hard to accept the reality that was so starkly presented before her.
And it's very strange.
When Yotsuya Miko called Hikigaya Hachiman "Kuni", Yukinoshita Yukino secretly compared her with Yuigahama Yui in her heart.
But it turns out that it's totally fine if Yuigahama Yui calls her that...
"that....."
Realizing that she had let the cat out of the bag, Yotsuya Miko looked anxiously at Yukinoshita Yukino who remained silent.
After knowing her relationship with Hikigaya Hachiman, wouldn't Yukinoshita just kick her and Xiaohua out of the car?
"Sorry, I need to calm down..."
After pressing her temples, Yukinoshita Yukino stopped Yotsuya Miko from speaking and closed her eyes.
"....."
Seeing Yukinoshita Yukino's strange reaction, Yotsuya Miko and Yurikawa Hana looked at each other and shook their heads in confusion.
Obviously, they were confused about what Yukinoshita Yukino's reaction meant.
.....
"Then, just go over there and ask the nurse to take care of it. My apologies."
After sending Yotsuya Miko and Yurikawa Hana to the destination hospital in silence, Yukinoshita Yukino hurriedly took the elevator to the ward on the target floor.
"Yukino~"
Just as I was about to punch in to the ward, I suddenly heard Yang Nai's voice behind me.
Along with it came the warm touch on the back of my head...
"Sister, I'm going to open the door."
After a cold reminder, Yukinoshita Yukino turned the handle, pushed open the door and walked into the ward.
"How cold. Did anyone upset my lovely sister today?"
Looking at Yukinoshita's aloof look, Yang Noi held her forehead and followed with a smile.
As they entered the ward, the two sisters were instantly shocked by the figure in a gorgeous purple kimono standing in front of the bed.
Yang Noi restrained the smile on her face, put on a serious look, and rushed to Yukinoshita to greet her mother.
"Mother..."
"You're here."
Hearing Yang Nai's voice, Xue's mother slowly turned around and glanced at her two daughters with a stern look.
After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the two people's clothing or the temperament they exuded, her expression relaxed slightly.
"How is he, father?"
Looking at her unconscious father lying on the hospital bed, Yukinoshita Yukino asked with a hint of anxiety.
"He is out of danger for now."
When she spoke, there was a hint of fatigue in Xue's mother's tone.
"What happened? Why did my father get into a car accident?"
Yang Noi asked immediately.
As a member of the Chiba City Council, Xue's father's security is naturally needless to say.
But even so, he was still seriously injured in a car accident and was hospitalized in a coma. It was hard for Yang Nai not to suspect that the car accident was not man-made.
"We've checked the surveillance footage. The driver of the oncoming car lost vital signs for a split second, which caused the car to lose control and crash into us."
Xue's mother's face looked a little haggard.
The cause of such an outrageous car accident was hard to believe even for her who was well-informed.
However, after calming down and thinking carefully, perhaps I can only accept the fact that it was that kind of existence that did it.
"Why did you choose my father?"
Because he only had vague information about evil spirits, Yang No mistakenly believed that those evil spirits were intelligent.
"They wouldn't gain anything by attacking a councillor, would they?"
"Sister, it must be just a coincidence."
Compared to Haruno, Yukinoshita obviously knows more.
"coincide?"
"That's right."
Yukinoshita Yukino nodded slightly.
"Those things were probably targeting the deceased driver, but Father's motorcade just happened to be passing by..."
As she said this, a look of helplessness flashed across Yukinoshita Yukino's face.
What does it matter if her family is famous in Chiba? Even her father, a member of parliament, is just a poor guy who was accidentally affected by the evil spirits in the eyes of those evil spirits.
"well....."
Hearing Yukinoshita Yukino's speculation, Yuki's mother couldn't help but sigh.
Obviously, she had thought of the same thing as her daughter.
Before coming into contact with the mysterious side, Mother Xue was very satisfied with the current situation of the family.
After all, both her husband and her two daughters are very outstanding.
Family businesses are also thriving and exuding a lot of vitality.
But after coming into contact with the mysterious side, Xue's mother realized that everything the Yukinoshita family had was just a mirage, and anyone from the mysterious side could easily tear the family apart...
"How can we establish a relationship with the forces over there?"
She looked at her husband, then turned to look at her two daughters, her mother Xue's face full of worry.
The best way to establish a relationship with the mysterious side is through marriage.
But as the actual ruler of the Yukinoshita family, Yuki's mother understood more clearly the difficulty of the marriage she wanted.
Just like she wouldn't want her daughter to marry an ordinary working class person, the families over there probably wouldn't allow their children to marry someone from an ordinary family like theirs...
Chapter 350 Refutation
"How's your friend?"
"Ah, the nurse has already treated her. It shouldn't be serious."
Yotsuya Miko had never expected that Yukinoshita Yukino would come to her on her own initiative. She hurriedly stood up, but was stopped by Yukinoshita Yukino.
"Calm down, I just happened to be passing by here while taking a walk."
"Is that so?"
When Yotsuya Kenko heard the reason given by Yukinoshita Yukino, the corners of her mouth twitched.
Who would walk in the hospital and run to where she is now?
However, Yotsuya Miko would naturally not tell anyone such words. She sat back in her seat and waited quietly.
Sure enough, after a short silence, Yukinoshita spoke.
"Yotani-san and Hikigaya are very close, right?"
Although it was a question, Yotsuya Miko clearly heard a firm determination in Yukinoshita's tone.
Rather than asking her a question, it would be more accurate to say that Yukinoshita was stating a fact that had already happened...
Hikigaya-kun, something's going to happen...
With a sigh in his heart, Yotsuya Kenko straightened his chest and nodded.
Although she was a little overwhelmed by Yukinoshita's aura, she had not confirmed her relationship with Hikigaya Hachiman, so there was no need for her to feel insecure!
"Is that really the case?"
Seeing Yotsuya Miko admit it, Yukinoshita Yukino's face suddenly darkened.
To be honest, she had actually already seen some flaws in the matter of Yotsuya Miko.
After all, Yuigahama Yui often complained during lunch that Hikigaya Hachiman disappeared at noon.
"Um, Yukinoshita-san?"
Seeing Yukinoshita Yukino lost in thought again, Yotsuya Miko called her tentatively.
"Just call me Yukinoshita. After all, we knew each other before."
Coming back to her senses from her thoughts, Yukinoshita raised her head and spoke.
"Then Yukinoshita, you are now..."
"What do you think of that guy? Yotsuya, that's what you want to ask, right?"
With her arms folded in front of her, Yukinoshita Yukino expressed what Yotsuya Miko was thinking.
"That's right…"Yotsuya Miko gave an awkward smile, then quietly reached into her pocket with her right hand...
.
After Inari-sama left, Irisviel chatted for a while longer and then went upstairs.
In the living room, Hikigaya Hachiman was leaning on the sofa with his eyes closed, but suddenly he received a call from Yotsuya Miko.
"Hello, Yotsuya?"
Thinking that Yotsuya Miko might be looking for him for something, Hikigaya Hachiman pressed the answer button, but the voice that came from the phone was not Yotsuya Miko's voice...
"Honestly, if that guy were in front of me right now, I'd want to punch him."
Yukinoshita Yukino's cold voice came from the phone.
Even though he knew that Yukinoshita couldn't hear his voice, Hikigaya Hachiman couldn't help but hold his breath.
"But after calming down, I realized I didn't seem to be in a position to do such a thing."
Yukinoshita Yukino continued to add.
It is undeniable that she has feelings for Hikigaya Hachiman that she herself cannot clearly understand, but this cannot be a reason to stop Hikigaya Hachiman from interacting with other people of the opposite sex.
What's more, Hikigaya Hachiman has never confirmed his relationship with any girl. Apart from saying that he is a little fickle, Yukinoshita thought about it and found that she seemed unable to do anything else.
"So, Yukinoshita, what is your feeling towards Hikigaya-kun?"
After confirming that the phone was functioning normally again, Yotsuya Miko immediately raised a question.
After hearing what Yotsuya Miko said, Hikigaya Hachiman on the other side of the phone immediately became nervous.
"I think I like it, right?"
Because there are only two people present, and both of them are women, or maybe there is something that has been stuck in my heart and I need to find someone to talk to.
After being confused for a while, Yukinoshita Yukino spoke out what was in her heart.
"!"
When Hikigaya Hachiman heard what Yukinoshita Yukino said, his eyes widened instantly.
What did he just hear?
That Yukinoshita girl admitted that she liked him?!
"But to be honest, I'm not really sure about this matter…"
After shaking her head, Yukinoshita Yukino continued to add.
"Because the members of the Service Club have always been three people, I can't quite tell whether my feelings towards him are similar to those between friends or the affection between a man and a woman. Not to mention Yui's side..."
When Yuigahama Yui was mentioned, Yukinoshita Yukino paused.
"For Yui, it's Yuigahama-san, right?"
Yotsuya Miko recalled carefully.
It seems that in every occasion at school, there are always three people from the service club.
And it seems that Yuigahama-san also likes Hikigaya Hachiman...
"Things are getting complicated."
Thinking of the friendship between Yukinoshita Yukino and Yuigahama Yui, Yotsuya Miko seemed to understand why Yukinoshita Yukino was unable to be sure of her feelings.
"Um, Yuigahama-san, you should know how Yukishita feels about Hikigaya-san, right?"
To be on the safe side, Yotsuya Miko decided to first confirm the current basic situation.
"Of course I know that idiot likes him."
When talking about Yuigahama Yui, Yukinoshita Yukino's tone was obviously much more relaxed.
"Perhaps it's precisely because of this problem that I don't know how to face Hikigaya."
After all, on one side is her closest friend, and on the other side is the man and partner she has developed feelings for for the first time.
Choosing which side is the real dilemma for her.
"Um... I mean maybe... Yukinoshita, have you ever considered being together..."
"Bigamy is punishable by law, Yotsuya."
Before Yotsuya Kenko could finish her words, Yukinoshita Yukino gave her a friendly reminder.
However, after saying this, Yukinoshita Yukino thought about it carefully and found that Hikigaya Hachiman didn't seem to be afraid of this.
After all, that guy was a mysterious person that even her mother wanted to get close to.
"Yotani-san likes him too, right? Could you stand someone sharing him with you?"
"sure."
Looking at Yukinoshita Yukino's surprised look, Yotsuya Miko answered quite easily.
"Huh?"
Yukinoshita Yukino, who originally thought that Yotsuya Miko would be the same as herself, immediately widened her eyes after hearing her answer.
"Why are you surprised?"
Looking at Yukinoshita Yukino's surprised face, this time it was Yotsuya Miko's turn to feel confused.
"because....."
Yukinoshita Yukino opened her mouth and wanted to say that it was because the law stipulates the system of monogamy.
But then she, who was proficient in a lot of knowledge, denied this reason.
After all, the system of monogamy is just a modern product. In ancient times, it was normal for a man to have multiple women.
Even now, there are many places around the world that practice polygamy...
"Yukinoshita-san should be someone who knows Hikigaya-kun's true identity, right? Then you should also be very clear that if Hikigaya-kun really wants a woman, as long as he beckons his finger, a large group of women with better looks and figures than us will immediately come to him."
Seeing that Yukinoshita Yukino fell silent, Yotsuya Miko began to attack.
"I would never do such a thing!"
Hikigaya Hachiman, who was eavesdropping secretly, had countless black lines on his forehead.
Although if he really revealed his identity, the situation described by Yotsuya Miko might actually happen.
But there was no way he could live that kind of promiscuous life!
"But sharing this kind of thing…"
After hearing what Yotsuya Miko said, Yukinoshita Yukino was obviously shaken.
Indeed, Hikigaya Hachiman has no obligation to abide by modern laws.
It would be better to say that the government should be grateful to him because he has not caused any chaos to society so far.
It's not so much that she couldn't accept the monogamy stipulated by law, but rather that she was hesitant to express her determination because she was not sure that she could possess Hikigaya Hachiman alone.
"If you want to have something, you have to give up something. If you are too greedy, you will end up with nothing."
Yotsuya Miko saw that Yukinoshita Yukino was already shaken by her words, and she quickly added fuel to the fire.
"But..."
Yukinoshita Yukino opened her mouth, wanting to say something to refute what Yotsuya Miko said.
"Actually, the reason you can't make up your mind, Yuigahama-san, isn't it?"
Yotsuya Miko once again made a shocking statement.
"!"
"Because you, Yukinoshita, don't seem to be indecisive. So the reason why you're so indecisive this time is Yuigahama-san, right?"
"....."
Yukinoshita lowered her head, unable to respond.
At this moment, she felt that her mind was in a mess because of Yotsuya Miko's words.
"ah..."
Suddenly, the necklace given to her by Hikigaya Hachiman around her neck became extremely hot. The burning sensation made Yukinoshita Yukino scream involuntarily.
"?"
Hearing Yukinoshita Yukino's cry, Hikigaya Hachiman on the other end of the phone was stunned.
What exactly happened to Yotsuya Miko that made Yukinoshita make such a sound?
"ah!"
But before he could figure out the problem, Yotsuya Miko's scream rang out again.
"Something happened!"
Hikigaya Hachiman suddenly stood up from the sofa and walked towards the door.
At the same time, at the hospital, seeing the figure suddenly appearing in front of her, Yotsuya Miko decisively reported the specific location of the hospital.
...
Five minutes later.
With Hikigaya Hachiman hurrying at full speed, he hurried to the location mentioned by Yotsuya Miko.
As expected, Yotsuya Miko and Yukinoshita Yukino had disappeared.
"Has he been taken away?"
After checking the surroundings and sensing a familiar scent in the air, Hikigaya Hachiman frowned.
"Hikigaya?"
Just as Hikigaya Hachiman turned around to look for the two women, Haruno's surprised voice came from behind him.
"Ms. Yang No?"
Hikigaya Hachiman was also a little surprised when he heard Haruno's voice.
After all, no one would hang out in the hospital late at night unless they were extremely bored.
